"It's been a great week for transgender civil rights. In Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter said no to the lies of Daddy Dobson and company and signed SB 200.

Now the New York State Assembly has finally passed AO6584 or GENDA, a bill first introduced in 2003. GENDA, or the Gender Employment Non-Discrimination Act, bans discrimination against transgender people in New York State in housing, employment, credit, public accomdations and other areas of everyday life."
